Thank you to everyone in year 4 for participating so enthusiastically in our Mayan Day. The outfits were brilliant. We all enjoyed being explorers and discovering new things about the Maya. We learnt about a few of the many gods including the sun god and the maize god and why they were so important. We made temples and learnt about the priests who were real Maya VIPs. We also learnt about some Maya sport, Pok-A-Tok and about the Maya number system. Year 4 will be able to tell you that the Maya were one of only two cultures to use the concept of zero.
